The interviewing process can be a legal and practical nightmare if not approached carefully. A seemingly innocuous interview question may actually be inappropriate or even illegal, and may culminate in a costly discrimination lawsuit. Such a situation can easily be avoided by using appropriate job interview questions.
An employer must ensure that job interview questions are in alignment with the law. The variety of job interview questions an employer can ask is wide and contingent upon the specific needs of a particular position.

Learn how to ask the best interview questions.
Novice and experienced interviewers are sometimes unsure of the best questions to ask candidates in an interview. While sample interview questions can help, having specific questions to ask a particular candidate makes the process even more effective.
Profiles International offers pre-employment assessments designed to help an employer best match candidates to positions. Once a candidate submits their answers to the Profiles International online assessment, the employer is provided with a detailed, Department of Labor approved set of recommended interview questions to ask when the employer interviews the candidate.
These questions are customized based on the candidate’s individual responses to the assessment.
Profiles International's ProfileXT® and Step One Survey II® assessments give you the top interview questions needed to determine if a candidate is going to be a fit for the job and a match for the company culture.
Customized, tough interview questions — that are prepared specifically for your candidate based upon his or her assessment results — can help you avoid incompatible candidate matches, save time, and make the hiring process more effective.
These customized interview questions are to be used in tandem with the insights provided by the employee assessments to further assist the employer in making a well-informed hiring decision. These custom interview questions are a significant improvement over common interview questions.
